Being a young structural engineer learning our profession I have quickly learned that there is a vast amount of knowledge that no one person can know. While I can go back to any textbook to refresh my memory on the definition of "failure", could anyone provide some insight on the terms not learned in school?

There is so much to learn such as what is a "base line" (simple example I know) or commonly used construction terms such a "dobie" or "standee". Is there a wikipedia for engineers or maybe even a book someone would recommend? Any help would be much appreciated because as we work in a profession which vast references for learning any concepts of design I'm getting sick of having to google  everything else!

The worst is when the people in the shop use a dialect word for an item and you have no idea what it means.
I don't think they have books for that, just don't be afraid to ask what they mean. It'll look kinda stupid at start, but you'll grow into it.
